Or looked at other way:
Most people who commute to London do so in ordinary jobs for ordinary rates of pay and have seen rail fares rise faster than pay over most of last decade.
Not got time to look up figures but Manchester, Birmingham and Leeds have all seen rail commuting grow rapidly over last 30 years or so. Probably same in Glasgow, Edinburgh and Bristol.
